Definitions
- the present invention relates to a motor having a sensor for detecting an operating state of a bearing.
- Motors generally have bearings for supporting shafts.
- the bearings of the motors are subjected to weight, vibration, etc., during use.
- the weight and vibration may cause malfunctions such as unusual noise, fixation, etc., in machines (for example, machine tools, industrial machines, etc.), and therefore the motors may fail to operate.
- a technique for monitoring an operating state of a bearing for example, Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication (Kokai) Nos. 2008-131713, 2003-79097 and 2015-231295.
- a sensor is attached to or in the vicinity of the bearing, to detect a parameter related to the operating state of the bearing.
- a device for example, control device, etc.
- a device connected to the sensor may be disposed on a side opposite the bearing (opposite the bearing across a rotor core in the direction of a central axis of a shaft).
- an operator has to route a long signal line of the sensor, i.e., has to deal with complicated wiring of the signal line.
- An aspect of this disclosure is a motor that includes a stator unit having a stator; a rotor having a rotor core inserted into the stator so as to form a gap, and a shaft including a first shaft portion and a second shaft portion protruding from the rotor core in opposite directions to each other; a first bearing for rotatably supporting the first shaft portion of the shaft in a first portion of the stator unit; a second bearing for rotatably supporting the second shaft portion of the shaft in a second portion of the stator unit; a first sensor for measuring a first parameter related to an operating state of the first bearing in the first portion of the stator unit, the first sensor having a first signal line for outputting the first parameter; and a guide path provided in the stator unit, for guiding the first signal line from the first portion to the second portion.
- the motor includes the guide path for guiding the first signal line of the first sensor from the first portion in which the first bearing is situated to the second portion in which the second bearing is situated.
- the first signal line of the first sensor is guided to a side opposite the first bearing (opposite the first bearing across the rotor core in the direction of a central axis of the shaft). Therefore, according to the aspect of the disclosure, when a device to which the first sensor is connected is disposed opposite the first bearing, the length of the signal line an operator has to route is reduced, as compared with a motor having no guide path. This facilitates wiring of the signal line.
- a single line can transmit multiple signals, thus facilitating wiring of the signal line.

- the signal lines L 1 and L 2 that have converged on the same position are electrically connected to the control device 50 , for example, through the signal line L 3 connected to the connector, but may be connected to the control device 50 in another manner.
- the motor 10 C according to the third embodiment has approximately the same effects as the motor 10 B according to the second embodiment.
- the stator unit 1 has the first housing 12 that is attached on the stator 11 and supports the first bearing 3 , the second housing 13 that is attached on the stator 11 and supports the second bearing 4 , and the tie bolt 14 A for connecting the stator 11 , the first housing 12 and the second housing 13 to each other.
- the tie bolt 14 A has the through hole H 8 that extends along the central axis of the tie bolt 14 A.
- the guide path 6 includes the through hole H 8 of the tie bolt 14 A. In this case, since the through hole H 8 of the tie bolt 14 A can be used as the guide path, there is no need for any modification to the stator 11 .
- FIG. 9 is a schematic sectional view of a motor according to a fourth embodiment.
- the difference between a motor 10 D according to the fourth embodiment and the motor 10 B (see FIG. 6 ) according to the second embodiment is that the motor 10 D further includes a rotation detector 8 , and the first signal line L 1 of the first sensor 5 and the second signal line L 2 of the second sensor 7 are connected to the rotation detector 8 .
- the motor 10 D may include any one of a combination of the first sensor 5 and the first signal line L 1 and a combination of the second sensor 7 and the second signal line L 2 , and the rotation detector 8 .
- the rotation detector 8 detects the rotation of the rotor 2 in the second portion 1 b of the stator unit 1 . More specifically, the rotation detector 8 is attached on the external surface 13 a of the second housing 13 so as to close the opening delimitated by the bearing attachment surface 13 c . The rotation detector 8 detects, for example, the number of rotations of the rotor 2 at the second shaft portion 21 b of the shaft 21 .
- the first signal line L 1 of the first sensor 5 and the second signal line L 2 of the second sensor 7 converge on the same position in the second portion 1 b of the stator unit 1 .
- the first signal line L 1 and the second signal line L 2 converge on the same position on a surface, more specifically, on the external surface of the second housing 13 .
- the through hole H 6 of the second housing 13 guides the first signal line L 1 from the end of the through hole H 1 on the side of the second end surface 11 b to the internal surface 13 b of the second housing 13 .
- the second housing 13 has a through hole H 9 .
- the through hole H 9 guides the signal lines L 1 and L 2 from the internal surface 13 b of the second housing 13 to the external surface 13 a of the second housing 13 .
- the first signal line L 1 and the second signal line L 2 are connected to the rotation detector 8 .
- the first signal line L 1 and the second signal line L 2 may converge on the same position on the internal surface of the second housing 13 or inside the second housing 13 , instead of converging on the same position on the external surface of the second housing 13 , and then be connected to the rotation detector 8 .
- the rotation detector 8 is connected to the control device 50 through a signal line L 4 , and outputs the first parameter received from the first sensor 5 , the second parameter received from the second sensor 7 and the detected rotation of the rotor 2 to the control device 50 through the signal line L 4 .
- the motor 10 D according to the fourth embodiment has approximately the same effects as the motor 10 B according to the second embodiment.
- the motor 10 D includes the rotation detector 8 that detects the rotation of the rotor 2 in the second portion 1 b of the stator unit 1 .
- the first signal line L 1 of the first sensor 5 is connected to the rotation detector 8 , and the rotation detector 8 outputs the first parameter and the detected rotation. Therefore, the first sensor 5 can be connected to the device using the signal line L 4 of the rotation detector 8 , without the need for adding a new signal line.
- the second signal line L 2 of the second sensor 7 in addition to the first signal line L 1 , is connected to the rotation detector 8 , and the rotation detector 8 outputs the second parameter, in addition to the first parameter and the detected rotation. Therefore, the second sensor 7 can be connected to the device using the signal line L 4 of the rotation detector 8 , without the need for adding a new signal line. Furthermore, the two sensors 5 and 7 can be easily connected to the device using the signal line L 4 of the rotation detector 8 .
